Transforming the Back Forty

After a trip to Finger Lakes Stone, commonly known as Llenroc, I thought I had enough to do the job but grossly misunderestimated.  Part of the problem was our neighbor Casey insisted I borrow his diamond tipped saw and grinder to cut the rocks and get them to fit together, but that made the rocks much smaller.  When I went back to the quarry the seconds pile all these came from had been bulldozed and covered with dust from their cuttings.  I got a few, but then got really lucky and scored some from various sources in the neighborhood, including from Casey who has just finished his patio.  Did I mention I got quite a haul of rocks and two loads of gravel with Casey's truck?  I think we owe him many drinks.
